Leonardo Medellin

What a good, simple but very entertaining watch, I was invested in every single character, and the slower pace is refreshing for a tv show.

Exceptional writing and comedic delivery. Acting feels effortlessly genuine and the slow pace makes it a relaxing watch.

The attention to detail, the gags you have to watch for, the clever dialogue, the characters you love and laugh at... all make this great.

Funny show about metal detector enthusiasts. Its good for one watch thru.

Charming. Small. Sentimental. Peculiar. Touching.

A slow paced comedy, that doesn’t take itself too seriously. A great watch that never feels too in your face with its humour.

This was a really endearing and masterfully produced series. Great acting, excellent comedic timing, and seemingly simply delivered. A gem!

A hidden gem. Wholesome and funny. Would love to watch it all for the first time again.

Great dry British humor. It’s a little slow moving, but definitely worth the watch.

I can't emphasize how wonderful this show is. Heartfelt and funny. The characters are all so real and charming

The League of Gentlemen

The League of Gentlemen is a British comedy television series that premiered on BBC Two in 1999. The show is set in Royston Vasey, a fictional town in Northern England based on Bacup, Lancashire. It follows the lives of dozens of bizarre townspeople, most of whom are played by three of the show's four writers—Mark Gatiss, Steve Pemberton, and Reece Shearsmith—who, along with Jeremy Dyson, formed the League of Gentlemen comedy troupe in 1995. The series originally aired for three series from 1999 until 2002 followed by a film in 2005. A three-part revival mini-series was broadcast in December 2017 to celebrate the group's 20th anniversary.
